With 5 MP of secondary camera it produces high quality images. The image can be casted on laptops or screens. You may require Chromecast for the same.
The 2 MP secondary camera is very good for clicking selfies supporting JPEG image format.HD video recording can be stored in MPEG4 or HD which is compatible with most electronic device these days. The headphone provided is of very good quality and produces good bass effect. 3G is supported by this phone and performance varies depending on the network provider.
Internal memory of 4 GB is a slight limitation for storing your favourite music videos or mp3 tracks. This is supported by expandable 128 GB memory card.
